LFX    Epsilon History

In the Summer of 2005 four founding stars "Apacionada", "Querida", "Xylia", and "Encarinado" crossed into the sisterhood of Puple, Black and Silver. Through this transition these ladies formed the first west coast chapter of Lambda Phi Xi, the Epsilon chapter. These ladies got right to work pledging a line of 6 girls in the Fall of 2005. These six ladies, the alpha line, also known as the "Sweetheart" line would lead the sorority to its motto of "Epsilon Excellence". In the Spring of 2006 the Beta Line, also known as the "Ladies with Taste" line brought 5 new members into our sisterhood. The Fall of 2006 three ladies joined the gamma line, also known as the "Forces of Nature". When these ladies crossed into our sisterhood we were now made up of ten of our most active, most dedicated sisters. These ten ladies worked toward a chapter goal of building our sisterhood, impacting our campus and improving our community. In the first two years on campus the Epsilon chapter received "Outstanding New Club" and "Outstanding Community Serivce" awards from our school as well as national recognition with our "Chapter of the Year" award. Together we worked on our recruitment vision, our philanthropy goals and most importantly we treasured and fostered stronger ties with our sisters. During this time we also made history by being one of the founding chapters of UNR's first Multicultural Greek Council. In the Fall of 2007 we took our largest line, 18 women. These women were part of or Delta line, also known as "One Love."

LFX National History

Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority was established in the spring of 2004. Our Founding Ladies  desired a Sisterhood and felt the need to create an organization that both of their respective Schools were lacking.  The founding ladies wanted an all-inclusive organization that focused on the idea of the complete woman, while at the same time creating a multicultural sisterhood whose focus would lie with issues surrounding women living in the postmillennial era.

While their Vision was strong, the road to building the organization they longed for would not be easy.   The Five Founding Ladies pulled together to lay the Foundation of Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority.  These ladies felt that their organization should hold true to the Ideals of Educational Achievement, Strength through Diversity as well as Service Excellence and Sisterhood Unparalleled.  While at times it proved quite challenging, they remained devoted to the task of bringing Lambda Phi Xi to realization, and on January 27, 2004 what had once been held as a dream, finally became a reality.  These Five Ladies would be known as the Amethyst Founders of Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority, with Lambda Phi Xi having joint Founding birthplaces at Michigan State University and Purdue University Calumet respectively.

Having their new Sisterhood composed, The Amethyst Founders embarked on the journey of spreading their Illustrious Sisterhood to other institutions throughout the Midwest and Nation.  While the first year of the Sorority held much joy and excitement, it also proved quite arduous for our Five Amethyst Founders.  Through Expansion and Membership Intake, Four Ladies emerged during the first year of Lambda Phi Xi’s existence that helped take the Sorority to new heights. These new Lady Xi's were bestowed the title of Onyx Founders; since without all of their hard work and tenacity, Lambda Phi Xi would not be what it is today, thus giving these Four Ladies Honorary Founders status.

Once all Nine Founding Ladies came together, they were in awe of what they had created and realized Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority would be unstoppable.  Holding steadfast to the pillars that make this organization distinct, these Nine Ladies transformed Lambda Phi Xi from the vision held by two, into the organization that it is today, cherished by many.  Lambda Phi Xi became incorporated on June 11, 2005, forever changing its name to Lambda Phi Xi Multicultural Sorority, Inc.  Through our Illustrious Sisterhood, Lady XI’s hope to show the world that Diversity can be a masterpiece.
